S2E7: Moving the Needle on Mental Health Through Research


Listen Later

For the last 8 years, Dr. Joshua Gordon has served as director of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)—the leading federal agency in mental health research. Next week, Dr. Gordon will depart NIMH and continue the next step of his career at Columbia University. As he wraps up his tenure, we sit down with Dr. Gordon to talk about the arc of progress in mental health research, how NIMH is translating evidence-based solutions to the treatment setting, and what's next for the director as he departs the institute.

Dr. Joshua Gordon has served as the director of NIMH since 2016. Prior to joining NIMH, he served as an associate professor of Psychiatry at Columbia University and as a research psychiatrist at New York State Psychiatric Institute.
